Northlands Campaign

Fife slices deep into the critcally injured zombie and it issues a long, drawn-out groan as the light fades from its eyes, but only for a moment as the glow returns and some of the wounds fuse themselves closed.  It then swings at Barnabus, Attack: 22 Damage: 3.

The remaining skeleton closes with Kina, slashing with its blade, Attack: 23 Damage: 4.

The other zombie continues to close, but due to its lumbering gate is not able to get in range of a target.

Bart leaps as close to the zombie as possible an galiantly says to Kina "watch this m'lady" and attacks the skeleton with his rappier.
Attack: 12 Damage: 9

After the attack he commands the zombie to attack the skeleton as well. "You are doing good work my dead friend! Keep it going and help me kill this sack of bones"

OOC: Of course Bart rolls a 1 when trying to impress. Smooth Bart smooth.

((We are cursed dice buddies.))

Bart deftly misses the skeleton, plunging his rapier into his charmed pet.  The zombie looks down at the rapier in his side, and swings at his traitorous friend, Attack: 19 Damage: 6, staggering the bird bard.

Rachel launches one more bolt at the other zombie, Attack: 17 Damage: 6, taking a toll on the creature, but not stopping it.

Attack: 23 Damage: 12

Wil's arrow strikes true, catching the zombie in its right eye and sending it sprawling to move no more.

Skeletons:  18

Zombies:  16

Cade:  12

Bart:  11

Rachel:  6

Wil:  4

Kina:  -- active turn

Kina moves to Bart's aid. She can't risk a big swing with the two so close together, so she uses a swift, calculated kick into the zombie's knee with her front hooves to try and knock it prone, and if successful, follows up with her bonus action to stomp its head.

Kick strike: 23   damage: 7

Kina connects, but not quite enough to put the zombie down.

OOC:  go ahead with a bonus action, though, when you can, and I'll move the turn counter up as well

Barnabus:  19  -- active turn

Skeletons:  18

Zombies:  16

Cade:  12

Bart:  11

Rachel:  6

Wil:  4

Kina:  -- bonus action pending

Kina's too close to the zombie to use her staff and can't risk clocking Bart with it either, so she simply throws an uppercut to the zombie's jaw next in an attempt to get it to stagger backwards.

Attack roll: 23  damage: 6

Woo! First crit! Bonus damage: 2

The zombie staggers as the light fades from its eyes, unfortunately it doesn't last, as it catches itself and life returns to the cold soulless face.

Barnabus moves to intercept the uncharmed  zombie and will execute another chop with Fife.

Attack: 9 Damage: 4

Fife strikes home, causing the zombie to drop to one knee as the light again begins to fade, but its stands back up, some of its wounds miraculously closing as it does.

The final skeleton swings at Kina, Attack: 10 Damage: Unable to parse dice roll., gouging her flank.

The zombie continues to concentrate on its former master, Attack: 7 Damage: 3, missing Bart by a wide margin.

Kina: --

Cade moves in on the closest zombie, attacking it...



Bite Attack: 24 Damage: 5
Claws Attack: 13 Damage: 7

((Whoa, WHAT? A friggin skeleton has +4 to hit and +2 to damage? We're level 2's here!))

OCC: Just a reminder, Barnabus is using his reaction providing disadvantage to any enemy attacks on party members within 5 ft of him via protection fighting style. Not sure if I made that clear.

OOC:  No, didn't realize, thanks, Barnabus!  I will reroll those hits.  Zombie:  17, Skeleton:  20.  Kina, just using the base stats for the monsters.  This is actually one of the primary encounters for this section, and by the end of this encounter, y'all will probably be level 3.)

Cade's bite puts the zombie down for good this time, and he is able to land a solid swat with his paw on the skeleton, injuring it severely.

Only the 1 injured skeleton remains.
